Liberally Intolerant

Tolerance is the
highest virtue screams the left! Diversity is number two! Yes, let's tolerate the silver head carp and
all its invasive species brothers and sisters! Let us tolerate global warming! Climate
change? That's the very definition of diversity! Didn't we hope and vote for change?! Let's welcome it in a
non-judgmental fashion! Yet, there sure
are a lot of people who don't seem to be very tolerant of, say, the Tea Party (“Tea-baggers”?
Hey, labelsdisable, libs). Strange,
as they are trying to help us reconnect with our founding principles as the most tolerant society in history,
with a constitution that explicitly protects all individual’s freedoms of
speech, religion, assembly, etc., etc. and promotes equality.

Intolerance? Go to North Korea for
example. Start talking trash about the “Dear Leader”. Say he’s fat and goofy
looking, and a brutal thug to boot. Nice knowing ya’!

Try the
Middle East. Shariah law is awesome! Especially if you’re a woman. Gay? Maybe a
journalist? Heard good things about
Venezuela, too. And Cuba.Soviet
Union 2.0 Russia? Perhaps it’s just bad timing. I’m sure it will be lovely
soon. Albania, Armenia…do they still exist? China? (That’s only a fourth of all
the people on Earth, right there).

The
Sudan? Libya? Somalia?

Other
celebrated citadels of close-mindedness? MSNBC, the NEA (both of them), NPR,
98% of colleges and universities, Hollywood, Nancy Pelosi? Not much real
“diversity” amongst any of the aforementioned.

Logically, one would think ablack conservative would be a celebrated and treasured member of a
modern-day diverse community. Nope.
“Uncle Tom”. “Not true to his/her blackness,
heritage or community”. It is nothing short of stupefying…and appalling.
Instead of being seen as exhibiting that blacks-as others- are independent of thought, are of
their own mind beholden to no one, and are present and valued members of
political groups across all spectrums…they
are mocked and told that blacks only think andbehave in certain ways! This
is where we’ve progressed to? The
very definition of racism? You are
“black” and because you are we
(liberals, Democrats) know you can
only think this way or act this way. If you think any other way, we
won’t tolerate like it. (And there is a perfectly valid reason why. If
you act and think in the ways we
expect and want, it gives us great
power. Over you…and everybody else. But you don’t really need to know that.
Have a nice day!).

Where
are the people and pundits saying that Harry Reid or Chris Christie can’t hold the views they do because
they aren’t true to their “whiteness”?

Racism?
Tolerance? Diversity? Think about it.

Those
“progressives” on the left can tell an
entire race what to think, and can get away with comparing Bush to Hitler
and using vile slurs against those they disagree with politically. All while
claiming the moral high ground. Yet if someone of a different political persuasion so much as questions Michael Mann’s
ridiculousglobal- warming “hockey-
stick” graph they get shuttled away to a bleeping gulag.

An Ode To Life

Appreciate all you have, as it- and you- will soon be gone. Leave no heartfelt words unspoken, no sweet gesture incomplete, no act of love undone. Love your spouse with passion and abandon, your kids with patience and understanding but also a firm guidance. Love also the truth, no matter how hard. If pursued by enough people with enough courage, it really will set us free.

And don't forget, we didn't ask to be born. We didn't create ourselves. We are not gods. There is a higher power.

Whence Shall Come Another?

True Then, True Now

"If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without bloodshed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves."- Winston Churchill

Time Well Wasted

The power lies within your hands To do with what you may But the hourglass is filled with sands Of endless yesterdays
